Resumen del Editor

Jacky Faber makes waves, even when docked in her adopted city of Boston to attend to the business of Faber Shipping Worldwide. With big dreams and perhaps too much exuberance for the Puritan populace, she quickly finds herself at odds with the Women's Temperance Union and a town roiling over the arrival of hundreds of Irish laborers, brought in on Jacky's Lorelei Lee. Thwarted at every turn by her enemies, Jacky is forced to acknowledge her shortcomings and possibly lose her beloved Jaimy Fletcher.

L. A. Meyer received a master of arts from Boston University, and is currently the curator and exhibitor at the Clair de Loon Gallery in Bar Harbor, Maine. He lives in Corea, Maine.

Katherine Kellgren has recorded over 100 audiobooks including the Bloody Jack series, which has been the winner of multiple Audie Awards, Publishers Weekly awards, Odyssey Honor awards, and ForeWord Magazine's Audiobook of the Year awards. She is a graduate of The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.

The flaw with writing the end of a book first.

What did you love best about Boston Jacky?

The old Gang back together, although 'with the Gang' Jackie had the resources to account for herself more effectively.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

See headline.

Have you listened to any of Katherine Kellgren’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to many books narrated by Katherine Kellgren.
She always does a Great job, I even select books because she narrates them.
I wish it were possible to give her more than 5 Stars.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Seriously? The ending felt contrived, out of character.

Any additional comments?

It was still fun to tag along with Jackie Faber.

Great series

LA Meyer was a great storyteller, artist and very nice man. His Jacky books are clever and fun. Katherine Kellgren is the perfect narrator.

wonderfully read!

I hate that I'm ending the series. I'm one more book and then the rides over. I know all good things must come to an end but I have enjoyed wonderfully this story

The misadventures continue.

Well performed as Jacky tries to put her life on track. Not all friends are as they seem.

Fantastic & so much fun. Highly Recommend

This is such a fun & wonderful series.
Just can’t recommend it enough! And the narration is FANTASTIC.
I am very sad that both the wonderful author L.A. Meyer & & the amazing narrator,, have both left this world much too soon, KK at the young age of 48. Just so sad that no more books with be written or narrated by these two very talented people. Hope you both know wherever you are now, that your wonderful works continue to bring joy to more & more people.

Best ever

Another fun but frustrating reD trying to get Jacky with Jamie. Lo e the. CHaracters, Jamey should have been himself around her.

Back in the USA

This is a good continuation of the series, with some old characters returning, some very farfetched episodes and Jacky in high spirits as always. Katherine Kellgren makes the series and has brought me so much enjoyment - only one book left to go!

Another great Bloody jack

Where does Boston Jacky rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Another great book in the series.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Boston Jacky?

Interaction between Jackie and the "Hunchback".

Which scene was your favorite?

Ravi's rescue.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I was sad when Jaimy left at the end.

I've read this 40x good

This is my 40th time re-reading the bloody jack series (ok maybe 40 is exaggerating a bit but you get the idea), and I am in love with how the story always keeps me on my toes. The narrator (Kathrine kellgren) is a magician with making these books come TO LIFE! I feel like I connect with jacky as she goes through her adventures. I love how Jacky is a very like able character but also has her faults. I am forever grateful for these books! I did like Boston jacky a lot, but I don't think it was quite as memorable as any of the other books. Also I didn't like how Jaiyme acted through this book (physically and or mentally)... that's all I can say with out giving out too many spoilers. Anyways it's a great read thank you L.A Meyer and thank you kathren!

A little too stretched out

The drama between Jackie and Jamie is a little too stretched out and the story is getting old. Overall, however, this is pretty decent. Great entertainment.
